Overview
GED2HTML is a program that inputs genealogical data in GEDCOM format,
and outputs a collection of HTML files suitable for presentation on
the World Wide Web. The input format it accepts is based on the
GEDCOM 5.3 draft standard, with some
variations to accomodate ideosyncrasies of existing genealogy programs.
The output produced consists of HTML files containing the individual
data, an index suitable for quickly locating an individual by name,
an auxiliary surname index with links to the first individual
with each surname, and a special index file suitable for use by automatic
indexing programs such as the
Experimental GenWeb Index
.
The output is highly configurable. Each data file can contain a single
individual or multiple individuals. Either a hierarchical or a flat
index can be specified. Files can be organized into subdirectories or
a flat collection. In addition, the HTML output is template-driven,
so that the format of the HTML files can be changed by the user.
